Render settings to reduce/remove moire patterns

omvendt

Hi, and happy Sunday. Say, do you know if there is a way to reduce the moire patterns that I get with this top? See picture, for example.

I searched the Forum archives but only found a recommendation to render at 4K then collapse to HD. Would that work?

Thanks

A Moire pattern happens when two repeating paterns overlap, that seems a bit large to be the pattern on the sweater and the pixel grod - are you sure it isn't just the pattern being stretched out? Does it actually go away or rescale if you render larger, or zoom in at the same render size?

Assuming you are using an NVIDIA GPU, there is a setting in the NVIDIA control panel -> Manage 3D settings -> Anisotropic Filtering that defaults to Application-controlled. I do not know if Daz Studio actually controls it, I have never seen a setting for it anywhere. Try changing it to some other value...

Optimize the settings of Pixel Filter Radius in Render Settings by keeping it > 1.25+ ... or try reducing the size of diffuse texture map to less than 2K.

I was going to suggest what @Crosswind did - usually I like to set it to 1 for extra sharpness but if I have any textures with very small repeating patterns like mesh, I set it to 1.5
